This week’s theme is…
What did you start doing recently?
What did you start doing recently?
Start doing.
Mm-hmm, yeah.
That’s right.
This week, we’ll be talking about the things you started doing recently.
Right. Sounds interesting.
Momose-sensei, what did you start doing recently?
Mmm. Nothing special. But let me tell you about one of my friends. He started painting pictures recently.
Oh, what kind of pictures does he paint?
He paints from photos he has taken. First, he draws the scenes from the photos with a pencil, then paints them with watercolors. They are so tasteful and artistic.
Mmm. Sounds nice. What is “tasteful”?
Here, “tasteful” means he has a good feeling of what looks good.
Right. Wow, so, his paintings must be just as beautiful as the original photos.
Yes, they are. For the paintings, he doesn’t use vivid colors, like bright red, yellow or green. He likes to use soft, smoky colors.
Oh, that sounds really interesting.
Absolutely. He’s really into it now. All right. Let’s move on to this week’s dialogue.
